Pointer’s Rock Lyrics by Jerry Reed

Both Barrels

1976

[Verse 1]
Well, I can see Pointer's Rock
I can see it from my window
It makes me think about you
And the trouble you got me into
Can't forget you
Well, it woulda been better if I'd never met you

[Chorus]
Well, you had your way of doin' things, that's fine
But I got mine

[Verse 2]
Well, I held nothin' back
Anything you demanded
If you had a wanted the moon and the stars
Well baby I'd a done my damnedest to provide 'em
Till the day I found you layin' there beside him

[Chorus]
Well, I had my way of doin' things for you
But you did too

[Bridge]
Up on Pointer's Rock high above the river
It was a cold and a windy night, but I was too hot to shiver
You were callin’
My name as to the water you were fallin’

[Chorus]
You had your way of doin’ things, that's fine
But I had mine

[Verse 3]
Well now through these iron bars
Of my gray stone window
I can see sunshine people up on Pointer's Rock
And I feel my eyes grow misty
What's the good of life when you gotta live it this way?

[Chorus]
You had your way of doin' life, that's fine
Now I got mine

[Outro]
Well, I can see Pointer's Rock
I can see it from my window
Lord God, woman, the trouble you got me into
